Other than the owl, today I'm going to post some photos of a town called Brignorth. It's really close to where I am from originally and when we went back to visit my family this christmas we went there for a day.

It's a really lovely town on the River Severn in Shropshire and it dates back to 1101.

It had been raining a lot in the days before our visit so the river was really high.

The town itself is split into two parts, the high town and the low town, and they are joined by a funicular railway:

This photo is what is left of the castle there:

We had lunch at the oldest pub in the town, The Swan, which dates all the way back to 1392! It was great to enjoy such beautiful countryside and history together.

Ooooh she's gorgeous -I'm sure Squinty would swoon! Popped into Bridgnorth on one of the few hot days we had last summer, on the way back from a day trip to Much Wenlock (fantastic wool shop, cake shop, book shop and Abbey!)Lovely place!

What a coincidence - a couple of hours earlier I posted about the owl I've made using the same tutorial! It's so cute and easy isn't it.Brignorth looks lovely, and I'd love to ride on a funicular railway :)

Ohhhhhhhhhhh - I love the greens in your landscapes - especially the last gorgeous photo...and the rocks!!! And the tiny owl is absolutely adorable - I would leave it until your hubby takes it down. :-) XOXO Tanya
